Hello! Today I'd like to share a project with you that is a fun way to share a little treat with a friend. I made little favors that you could give out at a Spring party or just give to a friend to help brighten her day. There is a small space inside these favors where you could add a bit of candy or even a small gift. These would be cute favors to set on the plates at a party too.
Fancy Pants supplies:
It's the Little Things: Four Birds, Feathered, Hummingbird, Honeysuckle, Headed South Patterned Paper
It's the Little Things: Rub-ons
It's the Little Things: Glitter Cuts
It's the Little Things: Element Stickers
It's the Little Things: Design Embellishments
It's the Little Things: Buttons and Trim
It's the Little Things: Chipboard Elements
Other supplies:
Baker's Twine
Fastener Tabs
Instructions:
1. Cut an 8.5" x 2.5" rectangle from patterned paper and round off the top. (Use a cup or other round object for tracing and cutting the rounded top.) Fold as indicated in photo.
2. Embellish the front of the project. Have fun playing with embellishments and try hanging a few off the edge of the paper. This is a great project for you to use up scraps of paper and pieces of border stickers that you may have left over from other projects.
3. Use fastener tabs (velcro) to hold the front flap shut.
4. If you want to add a little treat to the inside, place the candy is a small plastic bag. I trimmed down a 2" x 3" bag to fit inside. Punch two holes on the back side of the project.
5. Tie string through the holes and the candy bag. I threaded the string onto a needle and just poked through the plastic bag. Then tie a bow on the back of the project.
6. Give to your friends!
Those are clever AND adorable!
